I fell for you like quicksand Going kicking and screaming through the heart of you Slipping soul deep in to the thought provoking grains of you And in this world absolving love I sank Drifting into the fullness of us Or what I thought us was Because the further I delved into you the closer I got to suffocating The fullness turned to emptiness and there was no room to move I ceased to exist I became her That girl I never wanted to be But when you can't see, can't breathe, can't move Hopes and wishes will leave you Kicking and screaming See, I fell for you like quicksand At first resisting then accepting the fact that I was stuck Caught up in the muk of we And if you ask me, we were never meant to be A couple forged by fate To teach a lesson like burning stoves You left me with scars too deep to see But I learned from you Learned to trap and flow Like quicksand

I fell for you like quicksand Going kicking and screaming through the heart of you Slipping soul deep in to the thought provoking grains of you And in this world absolving love I sank Drifting into the fullness of us Or what I thought us was Because the further I delved into you the closer I got to suffocating The fullness turned to emptiness and there was no room to move I ceased to exist I became her That girl I never wanted to be But when you can't see, can't breathe, can't move Hopes and wishes will leave you Kicking and screaming See, I fell for you like quicksand At first resisting then accepting the fact that I was stuck Caught up in the muk of we And if you ask me, we were never meant to be A couple forged by fate To teach a lesson like burning stoves You left me with scars too deep to see But I learned from you Learned to trap and flow Like quicksand
